Hello NETGEAR Community,
Thanks for expressing interest in a Parental Controls service from NETGEAR. We are excited to share that we have been working on a new and improved NETGEAR Smart Parental Controls solution for the Orbi RBK750 and RBK850 Series and are aiming to have it ready for launch in the next few months! Please stay tuned for an update from us.

Christian

What about RBR850? Will the update to the RBK apply to the RBR? I wasn’t able to return it as I discarded the packaging. If only option for parental controls is RBK, I would be open to having it switched out for the RBK to resolve this issue. I purchased the RBR850 because it said it had parental controls and discarded packaging material because of my confidence in the products Netgear made. I have definitely learned a lesson.

This implies that the new Parental Controls product is supported on the RBx750 and RBx850 product lines.
